Thread: TB Lightning are cheating

I was under the impression the Canucks are about to be in cap hell this offseason, except Jim Benning is no Lou Lamarillo. <a href="/users/theleano1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@theleano1</a> you seem to be a Canucks fan so help me out if I am incorrect. (in hindsight the trade is quite light on the rangers side, but I thought the Canucks were in danger of losing him to an OS (I know no NHL GM has the balls to do one, but still)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>He’s been hurt all season, will miss the whole playoffs with his injury, ended the last year with an injury and was hurt the majority of last season. At this rate he is looking to be ltir retired over teams throwing money at him in the flat cap era

His best interest is to waive</div></div>

Johnson waives for the expansion draft, it nullifies it so they can trade him anywhere. Seattle wouldn't take him if he did waive. And COL has Girard, Byram and Toews ahead of him on the depth chart at LD. I know he's a popular player in Denver, but I cannot find the sense in keeping Graves, bc if they move him to his off hand, would you bench Johnson and have him play behind Makar and Timmins? Gauthier aint bad there's just no spot for him on the Rangers roster and the coach benches him for a month if he takes a single penalty.

Thread: What are they gonna do
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>If Brisebois put Gourde on waivers like he did Johnson would any team claim him?

I think Brisebois' mistake was trying to move the guys he wanted to move first like Johnson and Gourde instead of the guys teams would want like Killorn and Palat and now as teams are using up what cap space they have its going to be even tougher to move these guys.

Gonna be interesting to see how this plays out.</div></div>

No teams want to help Tampa. They wont claim him. TJ doesnt get moved without a 1st rd pick attached.

Also, idc how much loyalty these guys have, if someone offers Cirelli or Sergechev a super frontloaded 6.4milx5yr offersheet (or higher), I can't see them not signing. Especially Cirelli (tampa will struggle to offer him max value in 2 yrs when Point's contract is also up). Its about the time-value of money. A ton of money now is worth wayyyy more than "a little bit now and maybe some more later as long as you dont get hurt or regress or something else unpredictable happens."

Thread: Only works if Johnson gets claimed
Tyler Johnson is good. His contract isn't great. I just feel like no one is going to claim him to help the Bolts out. If he goes to minors (where he will definitely report), the bolts would have to pay another team to take him off their hands. Why take an asset for free when you can easily get paid to do the same thing.

Also, knowing the bolts situation, NO TEAM is going to offer a first to help the reigning cup champs out of cap hell to get a winger on a bad contract. Between Killorn, Yanni Gourde, and Johnson expect to trade at least one 1st.

Both Sergy and Cirelli are underpaid. Someone will offer Cirelli a 6milx5 ($14 mil more) and Sergy will easily get the same thing, probably more. I know youre just trying to make it work, but be a little realistic.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>crankshaft</b></div><div>Strome is about as overrated as you can get. Sharks insiders have already confirmed Georgiev isn't on the Sharks radar. it's moot in general.</div></div>

The Kapanen trade along with some of your own GM's recent decisions (not trying to be mean, just honest) proves the belief that most NHL GMs are morons and suck at evaluating talent. That being said, Strome is *as bad* as some people make him out to be. Jesper Fast also played on a line with Panarin this year, and couldn't even hit 30 points (his career-high is 33pts). His shooting % was normal and he wasnt on the loaded 1st PP unit. He was bad on edmonton because he was playing with Lucic and Puljujarvi (look up his with/without metrics there). His bad rap comes from his time on a poorly managed team, and all hes done for a year and a half is produce. I'm not saying the Sharks are going to acquire him, but he's not some garbage player. He's probably a top 60 centers in the league.
